A special evening for more understanding and compassion
The training Dementia Balance Model in Presence invites you to a calm, insightful further education in Karlsruhe. Under the guidance of Birgit Großhans, dementia consultant, participants will experience in two successive units how the world of people with dementia can feel. The goal is a deeper understanding, more empathy, and a respectful interaction in everyday life.
Self-experience with impact
The Dementia Balance Model makes burdens, uncertainties, and limitations in the experiences of those affected comprehensible. This form of self-experience strengthens empathy and opens up new perspectives for relatives, volunteers, and interested parties. The practical relevance is particularly valuable: insights from the training help to make encounters more understanding and easier.
Well integrated for senior-friendly learning
The event takes place at the Caritas Senior Center St. Valentin – Community Center. The location is established in Karlsruhe as a senior facility and thus provides an environment that is well suited for further education on sensitive topics. Registration is managed through the senior office of the city of Karlsruhe. The free offer is aimed at people who want to engage more closely with dementia, health care, and social participation.
An offer with clarity and structure
The training will take place on two dates: on Monday, September 21, 2026 and on Monday, September 28, 2026, each from 6:30 PM to 9:00 PM. The fixed structure supports focused learning in a protected atmosphere. Especially for older participants, a manageable, well-planned event is an important contribution to well-being and orientation.
Conclusion: Knowledge that supports in everyday life
This training combines expert knowledge, self-experience, and human closeness. Those who want to better understand dementia, lighten the burden on relatives, and sharpen their own perspective will find a valuable, free entry point here. An evening that touches and has a lasting impact – now experience it live in Karlsruhe.
